Up to 100 added horsepower? Up to 73 ft. lbs. of added torque? Up to 30% added fuel savings (about 4 or 5 miles extra per gallon)? All with easy installation, using only one wire?

All of this for only one payment of $24.90?

If you get this, and see these types of gains (or anything close), I will buy everybody on the Pathfinder forum one for their car. That's a promise.

One upgrade that can give you some added power and throttle response (and it's free) is to advance your timing 2 degrees.

Most of those power adders on eBay are gimmicks. I really wish they did work, but unfortunately all they do is add a resistor across some wire which makes the car feel like it's driving better.

The reason why those ECM reprogrammers are so expensive is because they go through years of research to find out how the factory computer works and how it mixes the fuel.

Here's the key to those eBay power adders: If you find one and it has your vehicle make, model and year in the auction title, search that same auction title without the make, model and year. If you get a million results for every vehicle that ever existed, it's a gimmick.

even IF you find something that gives you +HP and +MPG, im sure your engine will die sooner, If you want something faster and better on gas, sell your pathy!! These things are solid. Power and MPG are a sacrifice you have to make if you own one, but damn are they reliable...and theres just so many things i love about mine, id buy another if i had the space for off roading. in a heartbeat.

I've been around the block a while, and I've seen products like this being pitched for years. I have yet to hear of one that actually performs as advertised.It's all smoke and mirrors as far as I'm concerned, just like that old magic elixir they used to sell from the back of covered wagons 150 years ago.Nothing has changed.(And if you get an e-mail that says you are the lucky winner of a few million bucks in a Belgian lottery, you may want to delete it, LOL).

you can add 100+ hp to your pathy for free, if you know how to weld, and already have all the tools, and parts laying around to build a reliable turbo setup!

you would'nt even have to use high octane fuel, since we already have to...

so there you go. 100+hp for free!!!!
